Append queries adds NULL

Hi,

I want to append three tables with different columns with one row each.

When I append the tables, the rows in the new table are moved and the empty cells are filled with zero. I want to insert all the values in the first line as in the picture.

 

 

Can anyone help me.

In Power Query, add a custom column.  Just put the name of the table2 query after the '='

This will give you a row like

col1        col2      custom

42739    557...     Table

 

Expand the custom column using the header icon.

You are now 2/3 of the way there.

 

Add another custom column with the name of the third query, and expand that too

It sounds like your doing an Append, not a Merge. Can you verify you are doing a merget, and include what join kind you are using.
